CCC Pitcher of the Week: Andi Nelson
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - The Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) has selected Salve Regina University sophomore Andi Nelson (Candia, N.H.) as its softball pitcher of the week (April 1 - 7).
Pitcher of the Week - Nelson was a workhorse, posting a 3-1 weekly record with one save and a miniscule 0.28 ERA over five appearances and two starts. Over 24-2/3 innings, Nelson permitted just one earned run on 14 hits. She struck out 24 and walked only five. In her first of two CCC starts, Nelson spun a two-hit complete-game shutout in a 4-0 victory over Gordon in which she struck out nine batters in seven innings. Nelson was a hard-luck loser in a 6-5 setback at UNE, allowing just one earned run in 9-1/3 innings of work. She whiffed 10 and walked two.
The Seahawks (13-12, 5-3 CCC) have a pair of road doubleheaders before returning to Toppa Field on Sunday, April 14, against Nichols College (12 p.m.).
